The Tian family, a nobleman of the Qi State, once sacrificed to the god of the road in the courtyard. At the end of the ceremony, more than 1,000 guests were invited to the feast.
During the banquet, someone offered fish and geese, and he looked at it and said with emotion: "How deep is the kindness of the Emperor of Heaven to mankind! Grains were bred and fish and birds were bred for us to enjoy. As soon as he finished speaking, all the guests at the banquet echoed and agreed.
At this moment, a twelve-year-old boy surnamed Bao came up to him and said, "It's not as you say! Everything between heaven and earth, and we live together in nature, are all kinds of things.
There is no distinction between high and low in the things themselves, but only by the size of their wisdom, the strength of their strength, and their mutual constraints, so that they can survive, and it is not who is born for whom. Human beings get what they can eat and eat, and God has specially born for man. For example, mosquitoes and gnats suck human blood, and tigers and wolves eat human flesh, can it be said that humans are born to make food for gnats and tigers and wolves?

Original text: Zi Liezi learned from Huqiu Zilin. Huqiu Zilin said:
After the child knows it, it can be said that he can hold it. Liezi said: "I wish to hear it."
said: "Gu Ruoying, you know." "Lie Zi watched the movie without looking at it:
The shape is the shadow, and the shape is straight. However, it is in vain to follow the form and not in the shadow, and Qu Shen is free of things but not in me, which is said to be the last and the first.
Translations. Liezi learned from Huqiu Zilin. Huqiu Zilin said
You know how to be humble in order to be able to stand in your shoes. Liezi said, "I would like to hear from you about the principle of remaining humble."
Huqiu Zilin said: "Look at your shadow, and you will know." Liezi looked back at his figure:
When the body bends, the shadow bends with it; The body straightened, and the shadow straightened with it.
It can be seen that the shadow is either bent or straight, depending on the movement of the body, and cannot be shadowed; The embarrassment or success of the world is subject to the constraints of external objects, rather than the subjective will of the individual, which is the principle of maintaining humility in order to keep oneself ahead.
